Pierre's Elliott Rants

If you watched on TSN tonight, you heard it. On and on about Elliott's rebound control.

You know what, Pierre, I'm almost certain Sens fans will take rebounds . . . since a rebound is the direct result of a SAVE.

But it gets better.

So he harps on it a bit in the first, then again in the second a few times, intimating that Elliott is a busher who needs to go back to the AHL. So, the guys in the video truck put together a short package of said rebounds and you know what?

2/3 of them were saves off of his shoulder. How, precisely, does one control a rebound from there? What a toolbox . . .

For those of us that actually watch every Sens game, we are very familiar with that shoulder: it's the one that never had any dandruff flakes on it when Le Swiss was "playing goal" for us.

Great job for the most part on the game, Sens, and how about those 2 scrambles that Elliott came away unscathed from . . . I could get used to that.

+ credit on Picard for finishing a couple hits tonight.
